حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَمَّا فَرَغَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ مِنْ طَوَافِ الْبَيْتِ أَتَى مَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا مَقَامُ أَبِينَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ الَّذِي قَالَ اللَّهُ ‏{وَاتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى }‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ الْوَلِيدُ فَقُلْتُ لِمَالِكٍ أَهَكَذَا قَرَأَ ‏{وَاتَّخِذُوا}‏ قَالَ نَعَمْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us about an important event in Islamic history. It was narrated by Jabir that when the Prophet Muhammad finished performing Tawaf around the Kaaba, he went to the Station of Ibrahim. Umar asked him why he was going there and reminded him that Allah said in Surah Al-Baqarah, “And take you [people] the Maqam of Ibrahim as a place of prayer” [ 2:125 ]. This verse shows us that it is important for Muslims to pray at this station because it was where our father Abraham prayed. It also teaches us that we should always be mindful and respectful when visiting holy places like this one. We should remember to ask Allah for His blessings and mercy while we are there.
